The kilt is traditionally regarded as a man’s garment. But like trousers, which until quite recently were worn only by males, there is nothing today to say it must only be worn by a man. The wearing of kilts by women is common enough that a minor tradition has existed since Victorian days to wrap a lady’s kilt in the reverse direction. The front apron fringe then falls to left, in much the same way that a shirt might button differently. This is a matter of personal choice, and a good kiltmaker should allow either to be specified when ordering.
